[PATCH RESEND 1/2] x86/boot: validate earlyprintk= baud rate

[Thorsten Blum <thorsten.blum@linux.dev>]

parse_earlyprintk() parses the baud rate from the earlyprintk= boot
parameter with simple_strtoull(), stores it in an int, and passes it to
early_serial_init() without validating its range first. Large rates can
then be truncated to a non-zero int, after which early_serial_init()
computes the UART divisor from a potentially corrupted baud rate.

Validate the parsed baud rate before narrowing it to int and only accept
rates from 2 to BASE_BAUD, which fit in the 16-bit divisor written to
DLL/DLH.

Values greater than BASE_BAUD would produce divisor 0, and
baud 1 would produce divisor BASE_BAUD, which exceeds 16 bits.

Only parse the baud rate when a usable port has been selected, since
baud is not used otherwise.

Fall back to DEFAULT_BAUD for out-of-range values.
